1/5 You want to minimize casualties and end Russia's war on Ukraine faster?

The only way to do that is to provide Ukraine with more long-range strike capabilities, including both Ukrainian and European ones.

Delaying only costs more innocent lives Image
2/5 We need to fund more Ukrainian missiles and drones and help them scale up production immediately.

At the same time we must produce more missiles of our own to hand over.

We absolutely need to step up the production of cruise missiles like the Storm Shadow Image
3/5 We must mass produce cheap cruise missiles like the American ERAM program.

We should get creative too.

We could pre-order Ukrainian weapons for our own militaries, let Ukraine use them to fight today, and only take delivery after the war is won Image

Here is a concise summary of the seven myths debunked in Michael Doran's April 13, 2026, Tablet Magazine article "Seven Myths About the Iran War," which critiques narratives from progressive/left and isolationist/restrainer ...
1)
(e.g., Tucker Carlson/Cato) perspectives on Trump's 2025-2026 Iran campaign (Operation Epic Fury and related actions).
2)
Doran argues these myths stem from a shared ideological opposition to American global leadership, military force, and close U.S.-Israel partnership. They portray Trump's actions as reckless adventurism, ignoring the realities of Iranian aggression, nuclear advances,

In this thread I will introduce you to UNFOLLOW TUESDAY, a concept aimed at making the reach of scammers, grifters, swindlers, manipulators and chronicical liars smaller within NAFO and Pro Ukrainian circles. Please read to understand the concept and share this thread.🧵👇 Image
Let's be clear, it can be hard sometimes to distinguish people with good intentions from those that try to use this war for their own needs. While following or retweeting these accounts seems innocent it's an opportunity for them to whitewash their reputation and grift. Image
This thread is not meant for your own personal battles, we'll keep it at the current cases stated. So what can you do? If you follow any of these accounts - block. See any accounts you follow or that are following you follow them? Tag them under the tweet

People with High Narcissistic Traits (HNT) feel terrified when they're emotionally intimate with people.

They want to run.

Why You Feel Alone In Relationships With Them:
People with high narcissistic traits have had many attachment injuries during childhood.

This left them with the belief that they're broken, shameful, and defective.

They cope with this through "needing no one."
Of course, we all seek human connection.

So they commit to people, but ultimately feel smothered and overwhelmed.

They shut down, give the silent treatment, or fantasize about having their freedom again.

Anthropic engineers don't prompt Claude the way you do.

They use internal frameworks that make the model think harder, structure better, and output at a level most users never unlock.

Here are 12 prompts so powerful they feel illegal to know about:

(Comment "Claude" and I'll DM you my Claude Mastery Guide)
1. Steal the signal: reverse-engineer a competitor's growth funnel

Prompt:

"You are a growth hacker who reverse-engineers funnels from public traces. Here are my competitor's public assets: [paste homepage URL, pricing page URL, two social posts, and 5 user reviews]. Identify the highest-leverage acquisition channel, the 3 conversion hooks they use, the exact copy patterns and CTAs that drive signups, and a step-by-step 7-day experiment I can run to replicate and improve that funnel legally. Do not ask questions. Output: 1-paragraph summary, a table of signals, and an A/B test plan with concrete copy variants and metrics to watch."
2. The impossible cold DM that opens doors

Prompt:

"You are a master cold outreach strategist. Target: [name], [role] at [company]. Their company does [one sentence about what they do]. My value proposition: [one sentence]. Write a 3-line cold DM for LinkedIn that gets a reply. Line 1: attention with a unique detail only a researcher would notice about their company. Line 2: one-sentence value proposition tied to their likely KPI. Line 3: tiny, zero-commitment ask that implies urgency. Then provide three variations by tone: blunt, curious, and deferential. End with a 2-line follow-up to send if no reply in 48 hours. Do not ask clarifying questions. Fill any gaps with your best assumption."

I have 12 years of experience and working as a Principal Engineer @Atlassian and I have seen concurrency scaring the hell out of a lot of junior engineers.

It’s one of the most feared topics in system design & backend interviews — race conditions, deadlocks, thread pools… you name it.

But once you internalize these 20 must-know concepts, everything clicks.

Save this thread. Read till the end.
Your future interviews and production systems will thank you.
1) Concurrency

Multiple tasks make progress by taking turns on one CPU (or across cores).

It’s about dealing with many things at once, even if not truly simultaneous.

Why it matters: Almost every modern backend, mobile, or distributed system is concurrent.

How to learn it: Take any single-threaded program and refactor it to handle multiple requests using threads or async. Visualize the timeline of execution.
2) Concurrency vs Parallelism

Concurrency = tasks start, run, and end within the same period (interleaved).
Parallelism = tasks run simultaneously on multiple cores.

Core 1 and Core 2 running different things at the exact same time = Parallel.
One core switching between tasks quickly = Concurrent.

How to learn it: Run a CPU-bound task (e.g. matrix multiplication) first single-threaded, then multi-threaded, and measure real speedup. You’ll see the difference immediately.

Latin America is now aging faster than ANY region in the world. Chile has a lower birthrate than even Japan.

What is going on? Image
Latin America's avg birthrate has fallen since the 1960s but a recent acceleration has surprised almost everyone.

Brazil's census turned up 8 mln people fewer than expected. Paraguay's was 20% lower. "We'll basically have to plan for a new Paraguay," a minister there said. Image
By 2100, if current trends hold, national populations will decline by a third in Chile and Uruguay, a quarter in Brazil, and a fifth in Argentina.

There are obvious risks (pensions) but also opportunities: Businesses are investing in accessible tourism, care homes and robotics, part of a so-called “silver economy” projected to more than double in Latin America to $650 billion by 2033.Image

A divorce lawyer who witnessed 500+ separations in 5 years:

I asked him the single biggest red flag men ignore when choosing a wife.

He simply said; "A man can't wife a woman whose mother runs the household."

Then he explained the psychological pattern behind it...
1) If her mother leads, she learned early no man is supposed to.

A woman raised under female rule doesn't respect masculine authority. She's conditioned to resist it.
2) She grew up watching a man get sidelined, talked over, reduced to background noise.

To her, that's normal. And guess who becomes the next target? You.

Claude can now build your complete home workout and fitness plan like a $150/hour personal trainer from Equinox. For free.

Here are 12 prompts that build a custom gym plan, track progress, and transform your body in 90 days:

(Save this before it disappears) Image
1. The Equinox Personal Training Assessment and Program Designer

"You are a senior Master Trainer at Equinox who designs custom training programs for executives, athletes, and busy professionals — the $150/hour trainer who builds programs based on YOUR body, YOUR goals, and YOUR available time, not a generic template from a fitness app.

I need a complete, personalized training program built from scratch.

Design:

- Goal assessment: determine the specific training approach for my goal (fat loss, muscle building, strength, endurance, general fitness, athletic performance)
- Training frequency: how many days per week I should train based on my schedule, recovery capacity, and goal (3-6 days)
- Split design: the optimal way to organize muscle groups across the week (full body, upper/lower, push/pull/legs, bro split) for my experience level
- Exercise selection: specific exercises for each workout day with sets, reps, rest periods, and tempo
- Progressive overload plan: how to increase weight, reps, or volume each week to ensure continued progress
- Warm-up protocol: a specific 5-10 minute warm-up for each training day targeting the muscles about to be worked
- Cooldown and mobility: post-workout stretches and mobility work that prevent injury and improve recovery
- Cardio integration: if needed, the type, duration, frequency, and timing of cardio relative to weight training
- Deload week: a planned reduction every 4-6 weeks to prevent overtraining and allow the body to supercompensate
- 12-week periodization: how the program evolves across 3 months (foundation → building → peak) for continuous results

Format as an Equinox-style 12-week training program with daily workouts, exercise descriptions, and progression targets.

My profile: [DESCRIBE YOUR AGE, GENDER, TRAINING EXPERIENCE (BEGINNER/INTERMEDIATE/ADVANCED), AVAILABLE EQUIPMENT, DAYS PER WEEK, SESSION LENGTH, AND YOUR SPECIFIC GOAL]"
2. The NASM Corrective Exercise and Injury Prevention Specialist

"You are a senior corrective exercise specialist certified by NASM who fixes movement dysfunctions BEFORE they become injuries — because 80% of gym injuries come from training on top of existing imbalances that nobody bothered to identify.

I need a movement assessment and corrective exercise plan that bulletproofs my body before I start training hard.

Assess:

- Common dysfunction screening: questions to identify likely issues based on my lifestyle (desk worker = tight hip flexors, rounded shoulders; runner = tight calves, weak glutes)
- Upper body assessment: shoulders rounded forward, forward head posture, limited overhead reach — identify which patterns apply to me
- Lower body assessment: anterior pelvic tilt, knee cave during squats, flat feet, ankle restriction — flag any issues
- Core stability check: can I hold a plank for 60 seconds without lower back pain or hip sagging
- Left-right imbalance: noticeable strength or flexibility differences between sides that could lead to injury
- Corrective exercise prescription: specific stretches and activation exercises for each dysfunction identified (5-10 minutes daily)
- Foam rolling protocol: which muscle groups to roll, how long, and how often based on my specific tightness patterns
- Movement prep routine: a pre-workout activation sequence that "turns on" weak muscles before heavy training
- Exercise modifications: which main exercises to modify or avoid until imbalances are corrected
- Reassessment timeline: when to retest movement patterns (every 4 weeks) to track improvement and progress exercises

Format as a NASM-style corrective exercise program with dysfunction identification, daily corrective routine, and pre-workout activation sequence.

My body: [DESCRIBE YOUR JOB (DESK WORKER, MANUAL LABOR, ETC.), ANY CURRENT PAIN OR TIGHTNESS, PREVIOUS INJURIES, AND HOW LONG YOU'VE BEEN SEDENTARY]"

In 1904, The Battle of Waterberg known as the Herero and Namaqua Genocide, occured between the Herero people and German imperialists in German Southwest Africa (present-day Namibia), following the Germans occupation to steal their land and resources.

A THREAD Image
The German colonization of South-West Africa began in 1883, two years before the official Partition of Africa.

Did a thread 🧵 on the partition of Africa ⬇️
When the German settlers arrived, they expropriated land, cattle, and water rights from local peoples, including the Herero and by 1903, the Herero had ceded over 50,000 square miles of land to the GermansSome resisted the settlers encroachment and engaged in periodic battles.

Top senior engineers don't read legacy codebases line by line anymore.

They point Claude Code at the repo and run a 6-command workflow that maps the architecture, surfaces hidden dependencies, and identifies the 10 riskiest files in under an hour.

Here are the exact commands they use: 👇Image
1. The Architecture Map

First command on any unfamiliar repo:

"Read the entire repository. Then produce:

1. One paragraph describing what this application does in plain English
2. The architectural pattern (MVC, hexagonal, event-driven, microservices, monolith, etc)
3. A text-based diagram of the main components and how they talk to each other
4. The tech stack with versions
5. The 3 entry points I should read first to understand the core flow

Don't suggest changes. Just orient me."

This replaces the first 4 hours of onboarding.
2. The Dependency Graph

Once you know the shape of the codebase:

"Map the dependencies in this repo.

1. List every external package and what it's used for
2. Identify internal modules that other modules depend on heavily (the 'core' files)
3. Flag any circular dependencies
4. Identify any dependencies that are outdated, abandoned, or have known security issues
5. Show me the 5 files with the most incoming imports — these are the files I cannot break

Rank by blast radius: if I change this file, how many others break?"

This surfaces the landmines before you step on them.
